Release

Hiking is one of my releases. When I am out in nature is when I'm most myself.  I release all doubt, comparison, thoughts about my body, looks, weight, and am able to just, "be." There is no one there to judge me and I feel most in my element! Venturing off alone has been both frightening and revitalizing! I've learned how strong I am and know society can distort my view of the world. There is something to be said about stillness and silence.  No deadlines, agenda, notifications, stress, or aspect of time.  It's easy to forget how beautiful the outside world really is when our internal thoughts consume us!  I wanted to share some of my best photos from my hiking adventure!

Riding Solo

My road trip to Wyoming this last week alone was the furthest I've traveled in a car by myself. (I've only driven 5.5 hours before that) I was both excited and scared and when I got on the road was wondering, "what the hell am I doing?" LOL!   It was just me, the road, and my thoughts for 13 hours.  I was going to fly but opted to drive since gas prices are low. I only spent a total of $135 on gas! Heck yes!  A plane ticket would have been $500+.  

A part of me was fearful, yet I knew it would be a fun adventure out of my comfort zone which is why I decided to venture solo across the country! I had a few bumps in the road (my car's AC went out near Edgemont, South Dakota in 100 degree heat) but I managed to figure things out myself. It's not always easy going through life alone but once I looked within and mustered up some courage I realized I am capable of anything!

Success-We All Have Different Views

 

 
 
How do I measure success? By the number of lives I've positively impacted!!! :-) 
 

Success to me is living life to the fullest and nurturing relationships (with friends, family, and myself). Trying new things and adventuring out beyond my comfort zone. Taking chances; living freely! And being the best human being possible! 

Just wanted to share this with you! How do you measure success?

Country Christmas

Yesterday afternoon I strapped my snowshoes on and ventured out into the snow at my parent's farm! I took a few photos but they no where near capture all the beauty that surrounded me! I felt at peace with the world and myself. There are no words to describe my experience yesterday. How do you reconnect with the world? Anytime I am in nature I feel grounded and in tune with the Universe. Be sure to take some time out and fill your bucket. The world can be a very draining place!
